About this Item
Toronto: The Arctic History Press, 1978. First edition, limited to 1,100 copies, some of which were lost in a fire. 549pp + 25pp. Tall 8vo. Maroon padded faux leather, gilt lettering on front cover and spine. Large folding map in pocket, numerous maps throughout. Very clean within. Fine. An essential, easy to use description of all major and minor explorations of the Arctic and sub-Arctic, starting with the apocryphal St. Brendan's reach of North America. Also includes the Viking voyages, the search for the North-West Passage, the search for John Franklin, and more. Very useful roster of men's names. Extensive bibliography. A later edition was updated, but it is far more difficult to read and use due to its size and format. We recommend this edition. Seller Inventory # 010167
